                Gary,

                I'm not sure I totaly understand the question.

                The job that takes care of establishing the IP interface and
routes when
                another system dials up the AS/400 runs in QSYSWRK. It would
have job name of
                the form QTPPANSnnn where "nnn" is a one-up sequence number.

                The TCP/IP application used to interact with AS/400 will run
in whatever
                subsystem that application uses. If you dial up AS/400 and
then access it via
                the TELNET application, TELNET is (probably) using subsystem
QINTER.

                The point I guess I'm trying to make is that there is no
implicit connection
                between the fact a user connects via dial-up IP and what
subsystem TELNET (or
                any other TCP/IP application) runs in.
